Vacuum | Lindsay Marshall on Serendipity
may 2007 by bkerr
"We are not ... looking for tools to record our thoughts or to provide them with structure. What we seek is something that leads us to the unforeseen collisions, the copulations that lead to new thoughts, new connections and yet more new meetings."

Vacuum - Edward Vielmetti in Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104 | Blog analytics, some tools and experiences with it
november 2006 by bkerr
